Hmm, I'm not sure what you mean. My problem is not only
about @gnu.org, right? So I sent a test mail to a mailing
list whose domain is mail.freesoftware.fsf.org, and the
mail wasn't delivered or blocked, just disappeared (or,
not delivered yet). Do you want me to only test mailing
lists for official GNU projects?

Summary:  spamassassin configuration on Japanese

Original Submission:  The mail server seems to start using SpamAssassin, and my
mail was blocked because of it.

In some mailing lists (i.e. gnu-devels-jp and pupa-staff),
we speak Japanese, as we know all of us understand it and
even prefer it to English. So SpamAssassin shouldn't say
that any mail is likely to be a SPAM, just because it is
written in Japanese.

However, SpamAssassin tagged my (non-SPAM) mail with this:

X-Spam-Report:   5.4 hits, 5 required;
  *  2.4 -- BODY: Contains at least 3 dollar signs in a row
  *  3.0 -- BODY: message body is 50-75% uppercase

Clearly, this is bogus, because I didn't write any dollar
sign, and such a concept as "uppercase" doesn't exist in
Japanese.

Because I have been using SpamAssassin locally with no
problem, I think it's just a problem of the configuration.
In my configuration file, this line is included:

ok_locales ja

Since we always use Japanese, I expect all mails will be
blocked, as long as the current configuration is used.

Sure, mailing-list for gnu projects are @gnu.org, not mail.freesoftware.fsf.org

Besides the problem on Japanese, any mail to
mail.freesoftware.fsf.org seems not to be delivered at all.
I haven't received even CVS commit notices, which were
expected to be delivered more than 60 minutes ago.

I followup your problem to system-hackers that handle the mailman installation.
